Pearland PD stop with expired DL
Posted: Mon Feb 10, 2014 9:48 pm
Last week I was on the way to the PSC range with my buddy and the truck was stocked with our pistols and ARs. As I'm driving I pass by a parked Pearland Cop and he instantly pulls out. You know that feeling when you know you're getting pulled over?? Well sure enough the lights go off!
It used to make me extremely nervous. Now I don't really care. Just be polite and I won't get a ticket. I've been pulled over multiple times in the past two years and have never gotten a ticket. But this day I'm in trouble. See my inspection sticker has expired by 5 months and my license expired by a week. My buddy can't stop laughing, you're getting a big ticket. I bet him $50 I get off.
The officer comes to the car and asks if I know why I was pulled over? I hand him my CHL and DL and say no idea sir. He asks where my weapon is and I tell him in the backseat, we're going to the range. He states that my inspection sticker is very expired. I tell him I'm sorry but my DL is as well. He actually laughed and said why did I let them expire? "honestly sir I just haven't gotten around to it". Is there something wrong with the vehicle? No sir, it's a 2011. Ok I'll be right back.
My buddy is all over me, telling me he'll get me from jail on this beautiful Sunday. After a long two minutes, the office came back with my CHL and DL and told me to get that inspection done and to have a great day!
My streak continues! Thanks to Pearland PD for being a great guy!
